Breakfast Date With My Wife.

It’s a high school PD Day in York Region, and my wife has a half day doing her coaching/medic recertification later on this morning, so since she had completed all 145 modules as of late last night, while I watched Winnipeg close out game seven to move on to Round Two, we decided to go out for breakfast in town. It’s a rare deal when we get early morning alone time to eat a hot meal in peace. Especially now that her sabbatical is done for another four or five years.

Sixty dollars, or shy of thereof was what it cost us. Nothing special either. Seems like we could have ordered the whole family East Side Mario’s for that, and had two meals out of it — each. A dinner and the following day’s lunch. It tasted fine, I had a waffle, two bits of bacon, two sausages, and one fried egg, apple juice, and a glass of water. My wife had an omelette with home fries, orange juice, and a glass of water. No mimosas, no champagne, no mixed drinks, nothing extravagant. Sixty bucks seems steep to me. Maybe I’m just cheap. Twenty five bucks, oh yeah, I could do that once fortnightly, but not for sixty bucks.

Was nice to spend time alone with my wife without the kids eavesdropping, snooping, or butting in with comments, questions, or statements every twenty seconds. So that was pretty great. Happy Monday y’all.
